Chinese Home Style Cooking owner Tina Song’s sister, Lee Bahn, works Wednesday. The restaurant, which is located at the corner of Lincoln Way and Sheldon Avenue, will shut down within the next few months. It provides homemade Chinese food for low prices, attracting Iowa State students for the past 20 years.

CLOSING A HOMELY ATMOSPHERE Chinese Home Style Cooking expected to shut down Ames location within next few months

By Emily.Hammer @iowastatedaily.com For the past 20 years, students and staff at Iowa State have found a family in Tina and Chung Song, owners of Chinese Home Style Cooking.

The restaurant, located at the corner of Lincoln Way and Sheldon Avenue, offers homemade Chinese food for low prices that attract Iowa State students. The location is scheduled to close within the next few months as the lease will not be renewed.

For a few friends, it was an easy decision to fly out for a reunion when they found out the local business was closing.

“They brought their families out and threw a party here,” Chung said. “We got to meet all their children.”

Such events are not uncommon for the couple, who often receive visits from past Iowa State graduates. They have even had alumni who graduated 10 years ago stop by the homey restaurant to catch up.

“There is a couple who comes in sometimes with

their child, who’s maybe 5 years old,” Tina said.

“But I remember them coming in many years ago together as friends. I got to watch them grow up and now they are married.”

With regular customers who have become close with the owners, it’s no surprise that the business closing is not only bittersweet for customers but also the Songs.

“I am sad because I watched kids, and there are a lot of good memories,” Tina said. “I’m sadder than all of our customers; I’ll never get to see them again.”

Although sadness is surrounding the event, the Songs are conflicted about reopening. Chung is happy for a break but doesn’t quite think he’s ready for the monotonous lifestyle of a retiree.

“I’m only 58 right now,” he said. “I want to work until I’m 65. I have seven more years.”

His wish is to reopen in a year around Ames, but he’s not quite sure about the exact location yet.

Tina, however, doesn’t feel the same. After four surgeries, it can be hard for her to even come to work now.

“My body is saying no to reopening,” she said with a motion toward her left shoulder, which was her most recent operation. “And Chung was hospitalized three times last year. It’s time to slow down.”

After being open for 20 years, the couple has made a lot of friends and are sad they will no longer be able to see students with whom they had grown close. Even though this is somewhat of a mourning period for the Song family, they happily reflect on the good times they’ve had at the restaurant.

“People have come to feel like family here, and everyone knows each other very well,” Tina said before going on to mention a customer who visits every day and orders the same thing.

When he came in later, she waved to him and confirmed “Same order?” before heading into the kitchen and preparing it.

She also mentioned Dan Winters of Channel 13, who loves coming in for hot sour soup.

The worst part of leaving, according to Tina, is that their children grew up in the restaurant.

Behind-scenes look of Reiman

By Emily.Schroer @iowastatedaily.com Imagine walking into a garden and seeing various little butterflies flying around a 4-foottall Monarch butterfly built from Legos.

On Wednesday, Reiman Gardens offered a behind-the-scenes tour with a focus on pollinators. The group was led by Nathan Brockman, the curator of the Christina Reiman Butterfly Wing.

Brockman led the group through different parts of the garden that tend to attract pollinating bugs.

“It’s really been a good year for insects because the weather has been so nice for them.

We have had rain, it stayed warm and it hasn’t been so cold that things are dying yet,” Brockman said.

He started off the tour by showing off the more common butterflies.

“It’s very common for us to have Sachem, Peck’s, and Fierys (skipper butterflies) here,” Brockman said.

He mentioned that a weekly survey is done to keep track of the amount of butterflies still at the gardens. Last week, there were 50 Monarchs. Yesterday, the number was down to 41 Monarchs. The number is becoming smaller because all the Monarchs are flying down to Mexico for the winter.

As the tour continued, Brockman mentioned that the temperature was a little warmer than usual which is causing more butterflies to still be around instead of heading south for the winter.

“It’s so warm that these butterflies are still mating and laying their eggs and a lot of their offspring aren’t going to have a chance to make it,” Brockman said.

Throughout the tour, Brockman said that Asters (flowers) are quite a common place for pollinators. There was an average of 15-20 different bugs on a single flowering head.

“They don’t fight each other, they kind of just take their turns. They bump into each other which causes them to move to other plants.

That is one thing that is good with having a diversity on one flower, because if they weren’t bumped into by other insects, they would stay on one flower longer and wouldn’t spread as

much pollen,” Brockman said.

The tour then moved on to more bee-centered plants. Brockman mentioned that Bumblebees are the most docile of the pollinators.

“You can actually pet a Bumblebee and they just won’t care,” Brockman said.

He also talked about how Bumblebees aren’t just there to pet and look at.

“Bumblebees are good tomato pollinators, and when you have Bumblebees around your tomato plants it actually ups their tomato production,” Brockman said.

He also mentioned a fact about bees that most people wouldn’t think to know.

“Bees and several other insects cannot see the color red,” Brockman said.

Brockman continued to talk about how Syrphidae are actually bees mimicking flies. He said that there has been a major population explosion with Syrphidae.

“Flies are wonderful pollinators,” Brockman said. “They are better pollinators than butterflies and more specific pollinators than beetles.”

Brockman talked about how pollinators tend to be more of a morning bug.

Student Government senators passed a resolution removing Public Relations Chair Peter Meyers from his position during their meeting Wednesday evening.

Sen. Abhijit Patwa proposed the resolution to the floor, where it was debated for nearly a half hour.

Meyers “has failed to carry out his basic duties, maintain a healthy communication within the organization, project a positive image of the organization in his capacity as the chair, and provide leadership to the P.R. Committee,” according to the resolution that was debated.

While many senators who debated the bill said they still have an upmost respect for Meyers, they felt that the position would be better served by someone else.

Sen. Cody Smith, a member of the Public Relations Committee, voiced his concerns about Meyers, saying they need a change in leadership, and outlined several incidents where he felt Meyers did not properly lead or conduct professionally in his position.

“At the beginning of the week, I was very unsure in supporting this motion

from what I knew of it, and I based my support, or I guess my withdrawal of support, on reactions of me voicing my concerns of the committee to Chair Meyers,” Smith said.

Smith said he sent an email Friday outlining that communication needed to be cut down to necessary times, citing that 1:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning is not an appropriate time to be “blowing up somebody’s cell phone about PR.” Smith said he also voiced that he felt they needed to add members to the PR committee and not be an exclusive group, referring to the fact that the committee consists of Meyers and only three other committee members, including himself.

Smith said he told Meyers on Friday through the email that the motion brought up during the Senate meeting could possibly be introduced and asked if he would like to step down.

“The final line of the email asked if he would give time to consider these questions and these points until 5 p.m. when I was off of work,” Smith said, adding that he sent the email at about 1:35 p.m. and within 20 minutes had already received several missed phone calls and text messages from Meyers.

Lecture to focus on how climate change is affecting polar bears

By Jenna.Hrdlicka @iowastatedaily.com Interested in how the changing climate is affecting polar bears? Stop by the “Polar Bears: An Arctic Icon in a Changing Climate” lecture Thursday evening.

Andrew Derocher, professor of biology at the University of Alberta, will speak at 7 p.m. in the Great Hall of the Memorial Union, according to the Lectures Program website.

He is a scientific adviser to Polar Bears International, with specialized field research on polar

bears in the Canadian Arctic and of Hudson Bay. Dorocher has more than 20 years of experience studying and interacting with polar bears — he has even spent time working with them in Svalbard, Norway, with the Norwegian Polar Institute.

“Derocher’s research has focused on the limiting and regulating factors of polar bear populations including habitat use, harvest effects, and predatorprey relationships,” according to the Lectures Program website.

He is currently studying how polar bears are being affected by climate change and toxic chemi-

cals.

Dorecher is the published author of the book “Polar Bears: A Complete Guide to their Biology and Behavior.”

The lecture is a Paul L. Errington Memorial Lecture, part of an annual lecture series that honors Errington, who was a professor of wildlife biology at Iowa State University.

The annual lectures “recognize and pay tribute to his special qualities as a person and as a scientist,” according to the Natural Resource Ecology and Management website.

The cost of the event is free.

Students practice fire safety

By Dani.Gehr @iowastatedaily.com Lives can be saved in the time between the start of a fire and the arrival of the first responders with the aid of a fire extinguisher.

In order to prepare students for an emergency such as this, Environmental Health and Safety employees put on an annual event called “Campus Fire Safety Day,” where students could learn how to use a fire extinguisher and even test it out for themselves.

“That’s kind of a first defense [against] fire on campus if there is one,” said Ryan Wyllie, an occupational safety specialist in the department of Environmental Health and Safety. “We want them to pull the fire alarm, call 911 and then use that fire extinguisher, if they are capable.”

Charles Jarmon, a fire safety inspector at Iowa State, was one of the many staff ers there to offer tips on preventing fires. He believes it is especially important to inform these students since many are on their own for the first time and need some guidance.

“It might be the first time they [received] any kind of fire safety training since grade

school when they were taught stop, drop and roll,” Jarmon said.

He believes fire safety training in grade school is a big weakness in the country.

“A lot of times [students] don’t get it in high school,” he said.

His department is trying to inform as many people as it can and really tackle fire safety awareness. It is especially targeting apartments and other off-campus housing since that is where a majority of deaths by accidental fire in a college community happen.

Stephanie Loveland, senior lecturer in chemical and biological engineering, has her Chem E 420 class attend the event every year since the class covers a chapter on fire prevention and fire safety when in the context of a chemical process plant.

“They will be going off to work in lots of different industries,” Loveland said. “One thing that is universal to all of those industries is they have to have a basic awareness of process safety and a piece of that is understanding fire and dealing with objects that could ignite.”

She said it is a nice break for the students from the everyday classroom setting and it gives them a chance to not only hear the

information from someone other than herself, but also get some hands-on experience.

Among the students who attended was Ron Trump, senior in chemical engineering.

“If you haven’t been in a vocational setting, this is probably the first time you’ve run the fire extinguisher, so it’s a good opportunity to get the nerves out of the way … you’ll be more likely to feel comfortable in another setting,” Trump said.

His fellow classmate, Andrew Northrup, senior in chemical engineering, said someone who has never picked up a fire extinguisher would be less likely to use one in a state of emergency.

Michael Kunz, senior in chemical engineering, brought up the importance of aiming at the bottom of a fire.

“My friend was aiming at the top [of the fire] and it got to the point where the guy just shut [the fire] off,” Kunz said.

“It’s important to teach people that kind of stuff.”

The event was held from 9 a.m. to noon outside of Curtiss Hall. The annual event is hosted for Campus Fire Safety Month and takes place nationwide. It is sanctioned

by Congress and is now in its ninth year of existence.

Career fair broadens students’ perspectives

By Andrea.Dahl @iowastatedaily.com Students met with employers Wednesday afternoon in an effort to network with the 92 organizations that this year’s People to People Career Fair had to offer.

The career fair, which ran from noon to 6 p.m. in the Scheman Building, offered students the chance to engage with future employers about internships and fulltime employment opportunities in a professional setting.

“For a student, an internship is a great way to learn more about a particular employer or a particular kind of job,” said Beate Schmittmann, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. “For an employer, it’s a great way to recruit by getting to know interns who might be great candidates for future job openings with the company.”

Not only do career fairs benefit upperclassmen, Schmittmann said, they also aid freshman looking for opportunities.

“It’s an opportunity for freshmen to experience the atmosphere of the career fair and to see the range of employers who come to

Iowa State University to recruit,” she said. “It’s also an opportunity to pick up some information about employers in a student’s area of interest and to strike up conversations about what employers look for in interns or employees.”

Schmittmann said that students have a lot to gain from attending career fairs and nothing to lose.

She encourages students to attend fairs with an open and curious mind and to ask questions to potential employers.

The People to People Career Fair targeted students majoring in social services, health/wellness, government and hospitality fields.

This year’s participants included a multitude of accredited organizations, as well as professional health and law schools.

Erin Horning, community relations associate for AmeriCorps NCCC, said she is looking for an individual who demonstrates flexibility, adaptability and has a willingness to serve.

“I’m really passionate about NCCC and I want someone who shares the same passion I do,” Horning said.

Employers look for people who have a passion for their company and want a fulfilling career, not

just a paycheck. While not all organizations look for people with experience, Horning advises students to get involved with activities related to their majors and challenge themselves to step outside of their comfort zones and learn new skills.

Paige Auckland, sophomore in psychology, and Cein Moran, senior in sociology, said they learned many valuable skills while preparing for the fair, such as résumé

writing and learning how to network outside of the classroom.

Both were excited about the many opportunities offered within their majors and plan on keeping in contact with the employers they met.

“I just want to keep in contact and let them know how I’ve progressed through my [educational] career ... I just want them to keep knowing my name,” Auckland said.

Multiple students crowded CyRide and Lincoln Way to embark on the opportunity to network with potential employers at the Business, Industry and Technology Career Fair on Wednesday.

From noon to 6 p.m., students entered Hilton Coliseum to make connections and interact with more than 200 different companies and organizations from across the country.

Students in suits and businessprofessional attire filled the Coliseum, despite the 90-degree heat.

Christian Hunley, sophomore in pre-business, recounted his first experience at the career fair this year.

“The turnout, in my opinion, was great,” Hunley said. “I was shocked by the number of people who were there and how serious the ordeal was. Walking away from today, I gained lots of advice and perspective on how to pursue a job in the future.”

Average student attendance for the fall fair is about 3,000, according to the College of Business website.

The fair is held twice a year, once during the fall semester and once in the spring. The spring fair is slightly smaller, with an approximate turnout of 1,800 students.

Overall, the primary goal of the career fair is to allow students to network with employers for potential careers opportunities.

Many of the companies return to the career fairs every semester, which allows students to start building relationships with them early on in their college career.

Western Digital, a business that returns to the career fair every year, told undergraduates that the key to success is to be active and to get involved within their chosen career field. Experience is key — a person can never become too invested in their future, they said.

Emily Qualizza, freshman in predietetics, said her day spent at the career fair went very well.

“I spoke to a few food companies like FoodCorps and then Marriott to get my name out there,” Qualizza said. “As a freshman, it was intimidating, knowing that it’s my first step going into my career and not having a lot of background info to give out.”

Google, American National Insurance Company, Geico and Hy-Vee were among the businesses in attendance.

Resources, including CyHire and the MyState app, provided students with opportunities to research each business before attending the fair.

The large number of businesses and companies present was enough to give every student who attended a chance to branch out and explore possibilities.

“I was told to ask questions and be bold in speaking to companies,” said Jack Leistner, freshman in prebusiness. “I was impressed with the number of businesses who reached out to multiple different majors.

The Business, Industry and Technology Career Fair proved to be a success for many students. Some were presented with career opportunities of a lifetime, such as being offered interviews, and others were given the chance to strengthen their networking skills and receive advice for future fairs.

CROSSWORD

STUGOV p1 Smith, along with Sen. Aimee Rodin, who is also a member of the PR Committee, cited another instance where they felt that Meyers’ leadership style was not “cohesive with what PR needs” and what the committee members need.

According to several senators, Meyers took a full week off from his position as PR Chair, “going off the grid.”

“When Peter took the week off, we were told that he was on lockdown, phone off, not responding to emails, he even had a bounce back email saying, ‘I’m off the grid, this is where you can direct this,’ there was not full communication between him

and myself,” Rodin said.

Rodin continued saying that she felt a little blindsided by the situation, arguing that Meyers could have given more notice or at a minimum responded to emails.

Meyers began his statement to the Senate saying that it has been a pleasure serving [the committee] and he hopes to continue to do so.

“A lot of it comes down to trust,” Meyers said. “I put the trust in my committee and I trusted them to come to me with feedback, with comments, with suggestions for improvement.

“And not once did a single member do so.”

Meyers said the email he received regarding his lead-

STRAND Life’s too short to worry about the way your hair looks

By Jazz.Niehaus @iowastatedaily.com

A

strand of hair is stronger than a copper wire of the same diameter. But how strong of a hold does hair have on our society as a whole? Dove released its “Love Your Hair” video, a campaign supporting the freedom for women to wear their hair however they like, and it has raked in more than 14 million views, but the density of the topic may not hit home as hard to some as it does to me.

I didn’t know what to expect from college, but I never thought that two weeks in I would find my roommate on our futon with the same haircut Marshall Mathers sported in “Eight Mile.” In a Hail Mary attempt to get rid of her over-dyed locks, my roommate shaved her head.

“I hate it. I don’t even look at myself in the mirror.”

When I was in first grade, my mother decided to shave her head to avoid the most obvious side effect of chemo. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at the young age of 32, and when speaking of the smalltown tragedy, I rarely saw her shed a tear. It wasn’t until she received a basic training style buzz cut when she began choking back tears.

As time passed, my mother came to terms with living a life without hair.

She never bought a wig and rarely

wore head wraps. She wore her bald head as a badge of courage. People always took second glances when we went to Walmart. She asked if their sideways stares bothered me.

They didn’t.

“You know what? It’s just hair.

I like not having to shave my legs anymore,” she told me.

That was more than 10 years ago.

We all feel pressure in some way to fit an image of beauty that society holds us to, especially when it comes to our race, age and gender.

To choose to express ourselves with our outside image can seem daring, even provocative. White women are expected to have long hair. Black women are expected to tame their natural hair, yet are shamed for wearing weaves. Asians feel pressure to keep their hair dark. Older women dye their grays. Men should keep their hair short and groomed, but a straight man shouldn’t be too groomed. Men can’t dye their hair without being shoved into stereotypes.

No matter who you are, having hair that doesn’t fit the category of “natural” isn’t professional. We live among these stereotypes daily. We may even seem lost without them; a fish has no idea that it’s swimming in water.

When it comes to professionalism, hair seems to be a bigger deal than one may think, especially when it comes to the scrutiny of black women. According to BBC, a black woman

working in London was frequently encouraged by her employer to wear a weave to work because her natural locks were considered unprofessional.

Likewise, a Toronto eighth grader was taken out of class and forced to tie her natural hair up because it was “too poofy.” When “unprofessional hair” is Googled, only photos of ethnic women show up. In society, we put the social pressures of European beauty on young black girls, and society continues to wonder why only 4 percent of women around the world find themselves beautiful.

A woman’s self-esteem is more strongly related to her body image than her weight. The perusal of women and their hair in the workplace, school and the media is more strongly related to their body image than the mirror.

When I look in the mirror today, I see a slender girl with hair to her waist, an image inspired by that of my mother’s. Now nearing the eightyear anniversary of my mother’s death, I find my mind wandering to her and how short her stay on Earth was.

But even in the 10 years I spent with her, she taught me that life is much too short to care about who is looking at you in Walmart or is whispering about the sick woman with two children. In turn, it’s also too short to really care if people are taken aback by your hair because, that too, is temporary.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Humane meat: Viewpoint of animal scientist

By Jacob Yarian Senior in animal science “… The only truly humane meal is a vegan one.” That was the closing phrase of the letter titled “No such thing as humane meat,” written by Kenneth Montville and published Sept. 16 in the Iowa State Daily.

I have encountered many viewpoints and beliefs when it comes to what we eat and how we raise livestock, and although I do not agree with some people, I maintain that truth is vital to the conversation.

I am not here to convert veg-

etarians and vegans or start a debate; I write this because throughout my time here at Iowa State, I have been astounded at the amount of false information that is persistently perpetuated both locally and nationally to try to sway the public from eating meat.

I encourage you to read into Transport Quality Assurance to learn the types of guidelines that must be followed when livestock are transported, but I will respond directly to the appalling claims of how the animals are treated during euthanasia.

Euthanasia literally means good death, which is embodied in

the peaceful process seen when many companion animals are “put to sleep.”

We acknowledge an animal is dying, and it is our responsibility to make it as fast and painless as possible for the sake of the animal.

Livestock animals, contrary to the claim in the letter, are rendered unconscious through various methods, depending on the animal species and the harvesting facility.

Only then are the animals euthanized, resulting in involuntary muscle contractions and nonconscious attempts at escape.

Once the animal is deceased, it

moves on for further processing.

This is neither a pretty topic nor an uplifting one, but lying about it is irresponsible. I understand that to sustain my life, the lives of these animals are taken.

I am immensely grateful toward the animals and will therefore always treat them with dignity and respect. Animal caretakers all over the country echo this view as we work to feed the world with high-quality protein.

Please reach out to us, your peers and our esteemed faculty, with questions so that we may have productive dialogue, despite our differences. Being humane is our common goal.

5 EDITORIAL

Courtesy of Wikimedia Commons The motif of universities and colleges mishandling sexual assault cases is ever present in the United States.

Lawsuit highlights systematic problems A recent lawsuit against Iowa State University by the alleged victim of a 2014 sexual assault has brought into light a consistent and dangerous epidemic that affects higher education as a whole.

The lawsuit, filed by a former Iowa State student, accuses the university of taking an unreasonable amount of time to investigate the assault as well as discouraging her from making a formal report.

While the university has yet to respond to these allegations, the motif of universities and colleges mishandling sexual assault cases is ever present. Without pointing fingers at Iowa State, the lawsuit, at the very least, brings attention to one of the most difficult conversations that, as college students, we must have.

Furthermore, the accusations made by the former Iowa State student seem all too familiar on a national level.

In the last year, headlines across the nation have spelled out sexual assault as one of the most damaging and pervasive issues that, for years, many institutions have failed to deal with. We’ve all heard the statistics. One in five women are sexually assaulted in college, 95 percent of all sexual assaults go unreported, 60 percent of victims don’t report to the police and only 25 percent lead to an actual arrest.

This recent legal action taken against Iowa State, while currently still under investigation, is only the latest in the line of fed-up students and survivors who want to hold their schools accountable.

Many times, the stories are the same.

Yale, Baylor and the University of San Diego are among the many schools that face accusations of actively discouraging victims from filing formal reports.

The Department of Education has seen complaints filed against American University, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Indiana University Bloomington and Monmouth University, all for exceeding the 60-day requirement that Title IX sets for the investigation of a sexual assault, as well as failing to enforce no-contact orders.

Even the federal government has taken notice. As of June of 2016, the U.S Department of Education was conducting 315 separate investigations on more than 200 schools for the handlings of sexual assault reports under Title IX. However, many schools have escaped the grinder of public scrutiny because of rhetorical differences between sexual assault and sexual harassment. Some have even failed to notify students about the federal investigation.

Whether or not the allegations against Iowa State are factual, one thing is very clear: the mishandling of sexual assault cases is a systematic, institutional problem in higher education. At the end of the day, colleges are caring more about the reputation of their brand than pursuing justice for victims in their own communities.

Until these institutions come to terms with the reality of sexual assault in higher education, thousands of men and women will continue to be victimized every year, which greatly degrades the higher education experience.

Ex-Iowa State wrestler Kyven Gadson is now a graduate assistant with the team.

Wrestling brings on Gadson as assistant

By Ben.Visser @iowastatedaily.com

Courtesy of Iowa State Athletics

Iowa State wrestling is adding an NCAA champion to its coaching staff.

Coach Kevin Jackson told the Daily on Tuesday that ex-Cyclone wrestler Kyven Gadson has been named a graduate assistant coach for Iowa State.

Gadson was a three-time AllAmerican and the 2015 national champion at 197 pounds while he wrestled at Iowa State. Last year, Gadson competed at the senior level, wrestling in the Olympic Trials, among other international tournaments.

“He’s been through five years with us — the one year as a senior-level athlete,” Jackson said. “Now, he’s in graduate school and he’ll graduate with a master’s [degree] in May.” Gadson will continue to compete at the senior level, wrestling in a tournament in Russia in three weeks. But Gadson will provide the Iowa State wrestlers a mentor and a voice that’s close to their age and that has been where they want to be.

“I’m excited to be back as a true part of the program,” Gadson said.

“I think I can help with anything [Jackson] needs me to do.”

Last season, Gadson was a member of the Cyclone Wrestling Club and sparred with the Cyclone wrestlers when they needed him to. Now, he’s a part of the staff, while also earning his master’s degree in higher education leadership and learning.

Gadson wants to use his master’s to become an athletic director someday.

“To be a part of the program — even though I’ll always be a part of the program and I’m always going to be a Cyclone — just the opportunity to do it while pursuing other goals is very exciting for me,” Gadson said.

He’ll join Mike Moreno, a two-time All-American, as the other graduate assistant coach. Moreno joined the staff last season and is earning his master’s degree in higher education.

“I just want to thank coach Jackson for allowing me the opportunity to finish my master’s,” Gadson said. “As well as Mr. Jamie Pollard for signing off on it — allowing me to continue being a Cyclone.”

Former Iowa State football coach Dan McCarney, who coached at Iowa State from 1995 to 2006, went 56-85 in his time in Ames. In the years prior to his arrival, Iowa State had won just six total games. Over his 11-year span, McCarney led the Cyclones to five bowl games, winning the Insight.com Bowl in 2000 and the Independence Bowl in 2004.

McCARNEY RETURNS Former Iowa State coach will be inducted into the Iowa State Athletics Hall of Fame this weekend

By Luke.Manderfeld @iowastatedaily.com Former Iowa State head coach Dan McCarney has been around college football a long time — 45 years — and he’s been around many legendary names.

He’s coached alongside Hayden Fry, Barry Alvarez and Urban Meyer, who all are College Football Hall of Fame coaches, just to name a few.

But this weekend, he’ll be in a hall of fame of his own.

McCarney, who was the head coach at Iowa State from 1995 to 2006, will be inducted into the Iowa State Athletics Hall of Fame this weekend along with former basketball players Jamaal Tinsley and Megan Taylor, among other former Iowa State athletes.

He’s certainly worthy of his induction. McCarney brought the Iowa State football program from an outsider in college football to national relevance, leading the Cyclones to their first bowl appearance since 1978 — the Insight.com Bowl in 2000. They won that bowl game and appeared in four more, winning one.

“I get my name on [the plaque], and this is so incredible to be in the hall of fame,” McCarney said after arriving in Ames on Wednesday. “But this is about what a whole bunch of people did ... That’s the truth. So many people contributed to what

we did here. And it was damn tough and it was hard. We did some pretty amazing things.”

McCarney, who most recently coached at North Texas until last year, has settled into taking time off, traveling to Rutgers, Iowa and South Dakota State, among other places, but his coaching fire hasn’t burned out. He still talks to current Iowa State coach Matt Campbell every week on the phone.

Campbell brought McCarney back during the spring season to talk to the team and mentor the staff. And although the Cyclones have dropped their first three games under Campbell, McCarney has no doubts about Campbell’s coaching ability.

“I’m not fooled and I’m not easily impressed,” McCarney said. “But when I saw it firsthand, the job that he’s doing leading and motivation and building relationships and bringing out the best in people, [I was impressed]. Obviously, they don’t have the start they wanted. Who wants to be 0-3? Nobody does.”

Campbell has enjoyed McCarney’s advice as well, as they both entered precarious situations when they arrived at Iowa State. Campbell is trying to repair a program that has won eight games in the last three seasons.

McCarney took over a team in 1995 that won six games in the previous three years.

It’s been a rocky start for Campbell,

but the focus is down the road, and McCarney has helped him stay the course.

“He’s a guy that understands it,” Campbell said. “He gets it and he gets the landscape that we are trying to get our program to.”

McCarney is satisfied in an advising role for now, saying that it fills the extra time he’s acquired since leaving his last job. But he hasn’t ruled out serving as a coach down the road.

It’s not like he hasn’t had chances, though. McCarney said he got calls about coaching and serving in administration, but he wasn’t ready to get back into a full-time job at the time.

He doesn’t know if he ever will be.

“I haven’t figured it out. I mean, honestly, I’m not trying to avoid the question, I just don’t know,” McCarney said. “I think I have some positives to give, but I don’t know where I want to take that direction and that energy and motivation.”

For now, McCarney can focus on this weekend’s ceremony. He’s expecting family and friends from all over the country to come in to Ames to help him celebrate.

It’s a week where McCarney will be around former players and coaches to reminisce on his 11-year tenure with the Cyclones. “[Iowa State is] a tough place [to be successful at],” McCarney said. “It makes it more evident — more proud — of what we did when we were here.”

Iowa State tennis focuses on doubles play

By Tyler.Julson @iowastatedaily.com With the little time it has had together this season, the Iowa State tennis team has been working to add different aspects to its games week by week.

Last week, the focus was fundamentals. This week, coach Armando Espinosa and the team have been working on doubles play and trying to get the pairings right.

“We don’t have any returning pairs from last year,” Espinosa said.

“We’re trying to look at the new personnel, see what they bring to the table and then try to match them up with somebody who has been here and understands our system in terms of doubles.”

This system of finding pairs has been successful for the team so far this season. Last weekend at the Drake Invitational, returning sophomore Liera Bender and transfer sophomore Erin Freeman, made

The Cyclones will open up play Thursday in Minneapolis with two doubles matches. Unlike last weekend when only four Cyclones competed, all members of the team will have

NEW LOOK, NEW ALBUM, THE REVIVAL IS HERE

By Caroline.Shaw @iowastatedaily.com Offensive humor. California. Skate punk. 1995.

Blink-182.

These words seem to just roll off of the tongue in a neat, little group. That’s Blink-182, a three-piece band composed of Mark Hoppus, bass and vocals; Travis Barker, drums; and Matt Skiba, guitar and vocals. Over the years, they have had highs and lows as dramatic as any band, faced lineup changes and experienced a constantly shifting style.

However, back with a new album and a summer tour, Blink carries its reputation that continues to attract young, and not so young, fans all over the world.

B l i n k 182’s new album, “California,” was released July 1. The album spurred positive and negative anticipation. Most fans were simply excited for new music, but others were more skeptical. This was not the same Blink that had taken us on a “First Date,” asked “What’s My Age Again” and sent us to a “Rock Show.” This Blink was missing co-founding member Tom DeLonge.

Matt Skiba of Alkaline Trio is replacing DeLonge, who left the band last year.

The vast majority of fans are supportive of his presence on “California” and have welcomed him with open arms. Skiba is proud to be part of Blink-182 and has been very grateful toward Hoppus and Barker, as well as the fans. Skiba had always been a fan of Blink and is genuinely living his dream.

His excitement is apparent in concert and on the tracks of “California.”

DeLonge did not always

see eye-to-eye with the rest of the band.

These conflicts led to the band’s breakup in 2004, and DeLonge’s official departure from the band in 2015. The lineup change was tossed around by band members and fans alike. According to Rolling Stone, DeLonge was surprised when Blink-182 said it had quit. This left a lot of fans bitter toward the band because they felt DeLonge had been kicked out, thus fueling the skepticism of the new lineup and the new album.

With the change in the lineup, much of Blink’s fan base wondered, “Was this going to be nothing more than Blink-183?”

But the new album is true Blink.

From maniacal drum tracks to lyrics you might find on a bathroom wall, this is no doubt Blink-182.

The album carries an adolescent flair that has been a characteristic of Blink-182 since the beginning. It includes “No Future,” which is a tale of a broken heart

and isolation. It would not be Blink-182 without joke songs. “Built This Pool” and “Brohemian Rhapsody” fill this role but seem to be several years behind the members’ ages.

“California” is aptly named as it covers the diverse landscape of poppunk.

In contrast to previous albums that may have been on a slightly darker side of the genre, “California” has a lighter sound that leans more toward pop than punk.

Blink-182 has always covered large parts of the punk spectrum, however, and fans are taking it in stride.

Skiba’s vocals are a big part of the new album. Unlike many bands that try to hide new members to make the transition less obvious, “California” features Skiba just as much as previous albums have featured DeLonge. This is just one more aspect that makes Blink-182 unique to the skate punk scene.

With a new album comes a new tour, right? Right. And

these guys have pulled out all of the stops. Blink-182 is hitting the North America amphitheater circuit this summer and fall, packing almost every venue to the rafters.

Joining Blink-182 on tour are A Day to Remember, All Time Low and The AllAmerican Rejects. A Day to Remember will be at every stop, but All Time Low and The All American Rejects will split the duty of being the opening band. The lineup presents quite a throwback for people who have the bands on the soundtrack of their middle school or high school years.

Blink-182 has been around since the early ‘90s and has acquired a vast following since then. The tour is not only attracting young adults and couples but also attracting multigenerational concert buddies. Many dads are taking their sons to their first rock shows and making memories that will last a lifetime while reliving some of their own.

After seeing Blink-182 my-

self, I have relived and made many memories.

The shows are representative of just how big this new era is for Blink-182. No longer the cliché distant “punks,” the shows are full of audience interaction and dramatic pyrotechnics that leave the audience shrieking and cheering.

On stage, Hoppus, Barker and Skiba are just three guys doing what they love. There is not a second of the show they take for granted, and every moment is special for them and the audience.

This is a rare quality in today’s commercial music scene. Bands have become commercial entities, and venues have gone from small clubs to sterile arenas.

Shows are not always able to feel intimate, but these guys give everything to make sure every one of the nearly 30,000 people in attendance leave with a personal connection to the show.

Skillet to bring passion to Des Moines Christian rock band Skillet will perform at 7 p.m.

Thursday at the 7 Flags Event Center. Tickets cost $25 in advance and $30 the day of the show and are available at Ticketfly.

For lead singer John Cooper, Skillet has been a part of his life for 20 years now.

At the beginning of Skillet’s history, Cooper said the band started as a small project that quickly turned into a full-time gig after getting signed to an indie record label.

“It was a big shock,” Cooper said. “After the record came out, I realized it was gonna be a lot of work. It’s been a lot of work for a long, long time.

That hard work Cooper mentioned led to the year 2006, when he said he felt that Skillet’s success really took off.

“It had been 10 years of really hard work and things

started going really well and I think I didn’t even believe it at first,” Cooper

said.

Before Skillet, Cooper had big dreams of making music, but said that in his early life, he grew up

in a strict Christian home where he wasn’t allowed to embrace his passion for rock music.

“I just loved rock music and it affected me, and my parents wouldn’t let me listen to Christian rock music either for a very long time,” Cooper said.

Eventually, Cooper took music on as his career and was able to combine rock with his Christian faith.

He said he used music as a support beam in his life; rock and roll has helped him through tough times.

“That was [what] rock music was supposed to be for me,” Cooper said. “It was about the music and it was about writing something and it didn’t matter what other people thought about who you were.”

Cooper uses his struggles from his past to write songs, and he said one of his goals is to help listeners who have felt the way he has.

“I write a lot of songs about feeling empty or feel-

on its first U.S. headlining tour in four years. In recent history, it has played on mega tours such as Winter Jam and Carnival of Madness.

During the series of shows, Skillet is promoting its newest album, “Unleashed,” which was released during the summer.

Cooper described the new album as one that will help listeners get pumped up and said it tackles subjects such as perseverance and issues currently facing the world.

“It’s impossible to be unaware of the violence that’s happening,” Cooper

said. “We kinda wanted to make this sort of an escape from it.”

Cooper is excited about the tour and believes Skillet is known for the energy it brings to the stage. He said the crowd fuels his emotions on stage.

“Sometimes the audience, what they need to see in order to feel the song is to see that you feel the song and then, all of a sudden, they feel like maybe they are not alone,” Cooper said.

Left: A woman waits to place her order at Chinese Home Style Cooking on Wednesday. After it did not have its lease renewed, the Ames restaurant is expected to shut down within the next few months.

HOMESTYLE p1 “Our house was robbed when they were young, maybe 4 or 5, so I never wanted a babysitter,” she said with a scowl, but her face lightened as she continued. “They had to stay here, so they watched cartoons in the back. The customers loved them.

Regulars would come in and ask, ‘Oh, how are your kids?’ before they would ask about me and Chung.”

She noted the times her children would go to the gas station next door and send hungry people over who were asking for good places to eat.

“It was only four or five times,” Tina said, “but it was so funny when they did it.”

She also recollected a lady who tried to make one

of the business’s sauces from a recipe the Songs gave her, but ended up coming back the next day to buy the sauce in bulk.

“People ask for the recipes to their favorite foods when they find out we’re closing,” Tina said with a smile, “but we make the sauces in bulk, so we don’t really know how much of each ingredient to use for such small quantities.”

As the end of the lease grows closer, the reality of losing their restaurant is hitting the Songs. Even though their lease ends in October, they received permission to stay open a little longer until demolition starts.

When spring arrives, the new owners plan to demolish the small strip of businesses and replace them with an apartment

REIMAN p1 “As it gets later and hotter, things settle down and they are not as active plus all the nectar is gone for the day,” Brockman said.

He talked about how the Ames high schoolers have been doing surveys of what insects they find on what plants. They are trying to identify what are the best pollinator plants to plant around Ames area. In the spring they will plant pollinator gardens throughout Ames.

“This is what a garden should be like, not a bunch of pretty flowers sitting still, but things crawling around on those pretty

complex and small hotel.

“They said we can stay until the end of December,” Tina said, adding that she’d like to close in November.

Even in the face of this truth, Tina’s adoration of the community surrounding her restaurant is obvious.

“I want to let all the alumni, students and staff know that I really, really thank them and that I love when they visit,” Tina said. “They gave me a lot of good memories.”

For community members wanting to stop in for one more bowl of hot sour soup, Chung confirmed that the restaurant is still open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day except Mondays. If they pick up the phone in the evening, then they’re also open for business.

flowers,” Brockman said.

Once the tour was over, tour participants talked about what they enjoyed the most.

“It helped in identifying the skippers,” said Anna Scmullin, community member.

“I knew skippers, but I didn’t know which was which.”

The participants also learned an easy way to catch a butterfly: let the butterfly fly up into the net instead of swinging and scaring them all away.

“I learned which plants attracted the butterflies most,” said Haruko Nakagwa, also a community member. “I learned the particular plants and many different kinds of butterflies outside.”
